Equipment

Non-stick pan
Small pot
Casserole dish/ Baking tray
Oven

Ingredients

2 tbsp Olive oil
3 Shallots (chopped)
10 Baby potatoes
4 Lamb chops
½ tsp Rosemary leaves
½ tsp Sea salt
½ tsp Black pepper
2 tsp Butter
100 g Feta cheese
8 Broccolini
8 Asparagus

4 Servings

Instructions

Bring a pot of water to the boil, boil the baby potatoes for 10 minutes until cooked.
Heat the oil in a non-stick pan. Add the shallots, garlic, ½ tsp rosemary, a pinch of salt and pepper. Saute for 3-4 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 200℃ at this stage.
When the baby potatoes are cooked, drain the water and add 1 tbsp of olive oil, 1 tbsp of butter, ½ tsp of rosemary, pinch of salt and pepper into the pot.
Place the lid back on the pot and shake vigorously to cover the potatoes in the oil and to slightly break them up.
Add the potatoes to the pan and saute on a high heat for 5 minutes until lightly crisp.
Transfer the potatoes and shallots to a casserole dish or baking tray. Crumble the feta cheese and sprinkle throughout the potatoes.
Place the tray in the oven for 5-10 minutes while you cook the lamb chops.
Add a drop of oil to the pan and fry the lamp chops along with the asparagus and broccolini for 5-10 minutes depending on how you like them cooked. (Alternatively you can roast the lamb chops in the oven for approximately 30 minutes with the potatoes.)
Remove the potatoes from the oven and serve with the lamb chops and green veg.
